The substantial 18-measure refrain is underpinned by a developed choral accompaniment sung on a single vowel. The verses are for unison voices with optional SATB settings for the final two. This is a hymn for healing, and is of a length and sustained musical interest, to cover the entire anointing. A fine bit of ritual music. For cantor or soloist.
